Pattern Instructions

Step 1: Foundation Chain and Waistband

Foundation Chain:

1. Start with the 3mm crochet hook.
2. Make a slip knot and chain 42 cm (ensure this is an odd number of chains).
   • Adjust the chain length for larger sizes:
     • 9 months: 44 cm.
     • 12 months: 46 cm.
     • 2 years: 48 cm.
     • 3 years: 50 cm.
     • 4 years: 52 cm.
3. Join the chain ends into a circle using a slip stitch in the first chain. Ensure the chain is straight and not twisted.

Rows 1-4: Waistband

1. Begin with Row 1:
   • Chain 1 and work double crochet (dc) into each chain stitch around.
   • Join the row with a slip stitch into the first stitch.
2. Row 2:
   • Chain 1, then work alternating Back Post Double Crochet (BPdc) and Front Post Double Crochet (FPdc) stitches around.
   • Insert your hook around the post of the stitch (not in the top loops) to create texture.
   • Join with a slip stitch into the first stitch.
3. Repeat Row 2 for Rows 3-4 to complete the waistband.

Step 2: Main Body Construction

Switch to 3.5mm Hook:

For the next rows, switch to the larger crochet hook for the main body of the pants.

Rows 5-18 (Main Body):

1. Begin Row 5:
   • Chain 1 and work a single crochet (sc) into the same stitch.
   • In the next stitch, work double crochet (dc).
   • Alternate between single crochet and double crochet stitches across the row.
   • Join the row with a slip stitch into the first single crochet.
2. Row 6:
   • Chain 1, turn your work.
   • Begin with a double crochet (dc) in the same stitch.
   • Alternate between single crochet (sc) and double crochet (dc) stitches across the row, reversing the stitch placement from the previous row (e.g., sc over dc, dc over sc).
   • Join with a slip stitch in the first double crochet.
3. Repeat Row 5 and Row 6 for alternating rows until the body of the pants measures 18 cm.

Step 3: Split for Legs

To split the pants into two leg sections:

1. Place stitch markers:
   • Divide the row into two equal parts. For 0–6 months:
     • First leg: 52 stitches.
     • Second leg: 52 stitches.
   • Skip the stitches in between the marked sections (these stitches won’t be worked).
2. Begin working on one leg:

Step 4: Crocheting Each Leg

First Leg:

1. Join a new yarn at the marker for the leg opening.
2. Row 1:
   • Chain 1, work double crochet (dc) into the same stitch.
   • Alternate between single crochet (sc) and double crochet (dc) stitches across the row.
   • End with a single crochet and join with a slip stitch in the first double crochet.
3. Row 2:
   • Chain 1, turn.
   • Begin with single crochet in the same stitch and alternate between sc and dc stitches across the row (reverse placement from Row 1).
   • Join with a slip stitch.
4. Repeat Rows 1 and 2 until the leg measures 38 cm.
5. Last 3 Rows:
   • Switch to a 3mm hook for the edge rows.
   • Chain 1, work alternating BPdc and FPdc stitches.
   • This creates a textured, snug edge at the bottom of the leg.

Second Leg:

Repeat the exact steps for the second leg, joining yarn at the other marker.

Step 5: Finishing Edges and Assembly

1. Sew the Pants Together:
   • Use a tapestry needle and stitch together the body at the crotch area.
   • Fold the pants evenly and ensure seams are invisible.
2. Final Edge Touchups:
   • Use the 3mm hook to crochet edges and smooth out any uneven stitches.
